Ah! At last I have found a little time for my favourite subject - Registry editing again. Let me tell you about hiding all the drives in My Computers with a Registry edit.
1. Go to Start ->Run->type regedit to open the Registry editor.
2. Find the following key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Micro$oft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
3. Right click on the panel on the right side of Registry Editor and create a DWORD item and name it "NoDrives" (without quotes).
4. Now modify the data and assign it a value of 3FFFFFF(hexadecimal).
5. Restart your computer.
Now if you want to show the drives, delete the above key - NoDrives.
Note :- Even if the drives are hidden you can make a path towards it, if you want. Make a shortcut and type the path of the drive you want to connect with.
